Pinay Bonding

Mildred is my newest Filipino friend. She hails from Bicol but currently residing in Honolulu. Her husband, Shawn, and my bana-bear are both members of the Inspirations band. We hit it off the first time we met in one of the band's gigs, and from then on, we've become good friends. Mildred and I usually meet once (sometimes twice) a week when she tags along with her husband during their band practice at home.

Fridays are practice time for the band and bonding time for the two Pinays. We enjoy Pinoy food-trip (like hot sardines and dried fish), chocolate cake and movies. Lately, we have been following Claudine's and Piolo's "Walang Kapalit" on dvd which I rent from Netflix.

Last Friday, Mildred taught me how to make the Philippine dessert leche flan. We served our first finished product to the guys in the band and they liked it! Iba talaga ang Pinoy!

The Sojourner

I am a Filipina transplanted in the U.S. and trying to survive life in a new environment. This is a journal of my personal observations on a variety of subjects of interest as well as a diary of my journey through life, particularly my experiences in my new home.
